Day 1. You are wonderfully made

Verse (King James Version)

I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made

Psalm 139:14 (KJV, excerpt)

Read

This line comes from a song about being known completely and still being valued. It does not say you are perfect or that everything about you is easy. It says you are made with care. That can be hard to believe on a day when you feel behind, awkward or tired of comparing yourself with other people.

Talk about it

When do you find it hardest to believe that you matter? What helps?

Try this

Write one sentence about yourself that is kind and true, and say it out loud once.
